This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
1) The client is experiencing an issue with joining segments in translations, which requires redoing the joins every time an edit is made in the original language.
2) The client wants to preserve the URL slug in the original language for translations, but the slug is being automatically generated based on the translated title.
Solution:
1) We acknowledge the inconvenience caused by the joining segments issue and confirm that our development team is currently working on a solution.
2) To ensure the URL slug is copied from the original language, please follow these steps:
- Go to WPML -> Settings -> Translated documents options -> Page URL
- Select
Copy from original language if translation language uses encoded URLs
- Navigate to WPML -> Languages -> Edit languages
- Set
